About 520 students have participated in the Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP) since its inception in 1998. The program began actively tracking intern alumni in 2009, and has remained in contact with 206 of the 231 interns supported since then. Of these intern alumni, all have attained their primary objective and graduated from college. Thirty percent of SURP alumni are currently enrolled in graduate school, 24% are currently enrolled in medical school, 19% are employed in the research sector taking a gap year(s) before applying to graduate or medical school or participating in a post-baccalaureate program; and 7% are currently enrolled in dual degree programs.
SURP Alumni Enrollment in Graduate or Medical School
SURP intern alumni have gone on to graduate and medical school at over 80 different institutions across the country, pursuing a variety of medical and advanced degrees.
SURP intern alumni have gone on to graduate and medical school at over 80 different institutions across the country, pursuing a variety of medical and advanced degrees. SURP staff aim to foster a community of support amongst intern alumni by featuring where our interns are located across the US. If you are interested in getting in touch with an intern alum attending a particular institution or pursuing a specific degree, please don’t hesitate to reach out to SURP staff.
Award-Winning Posters
The SURP culminates with a competitive poster session, attended by community members and Fred Hutch faculty and staff at large. Interns compete for three awards: Best Poster Design; Best Poster Presentation; and the Lee Harwell Award, in recognition of contributing to innovative research, delivering an outstanding presentation, and creating an exceptional visual arrangement for a scientific poster.

“The Fred Hutch SURP was my first time really at the front lines of cutting-edge science. To experience this in such a supportive environment was crucial to my growth as a scientist. The interactions with my lab mentors and PI were profoundly rewarding and stimulating during the internship and I continue to interact with them from afar as life-long mentors.”
